It is very clear that Vishal has used Kaththi Sandai as his political entry with a social message for the audiences. Hip-hop Tamizha has tried his best to give two hummable numbers while Richard M Nathan's cinematography is laudable. Overall, Kaththi Sandai is remotely original or interesting.

Barring a back-to-back twist before the interval, the movie was almost predictable and was a mishmash of several old films. With a not-so-proper characterisations for the ones who played prominent roles and a done-to-death plot, the film, overall doesn't engage.
